Power Distribution Board MATEKSYS PDB-HEX
The MATEKSYS PDB-HEX is a hexagonal power distribution board optimized for hexacopters and quads, offering robust current sensing and adjustable BEC to deliver reliable power and telemetry in compact FPV setups.
Features:
- Supports wide input range (2–12S LiPo, 6–60 V DC) with built-in current sensing.
- Distributes power to six ESCs with telemetry signal support via integrated pads.
- Includes protective features: overcurrent protection, short-circuit tolerance, and self-recovery.
- Compact mounting design.
